A poetic performance transports viewers playfully into a pre-Hispanic Mayan world, where people are born from corn and where Jaguar Gods roam the ancient lands of Yucatan. Through movement, masks, marionettes and music, Ramblers Teatro create dream-like imagery to explore Mayan origins and folklore.

The tale follows K'iin, son of the goddess Ixchel, whose life journey takes him through jungles, pueblos and cenotes to realise his destiny and protect his homeland.

Born was developed with Surge as part of our Street Theatre Bursary Programme for Surge Festival.
